Vijay Mallya's Twitter & e-mail accounts hacked, personal details leaked

 After attacking the Congress Party and its vice-president Rahul Gandhi, Vijay Mallya's Twitter account was hacked on Friday morning by a group that identified itself as the 'Legion'. 

Mallya's Twitter and e-mail accounts were reportedly hacked and some of his personal and financial details, including passwords, addresses and phone number, were posted online.

The hackers have threatened to expose more financial details of Mallya in coming days. 

Hours before the tweets posted by the hackers, Mallya has written:

Gandhi's Twitter account @OfficeOfRG (Office of RG) was hacked on November 30. The Twitter handle logs show both Gandhi and Congress' account were operated from Sweden, Romania, US, Canada and Thailand.

Mallya, whose defunct Kingfisher Airlines owes more than Rs 9,000 crore to various banks, had left India on March 2.

On December 2, a special anti-money laundering court confirmed an attachment of assets order worth Rs 1,411 crore issued by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against United Breweries Holdings Ltd (UBHL) and others in connection with its money laundering probe against the liquor baron and others. This is one of the largest attachment of assets made by ED in a PMLA case till now.

The agency had registered a money laundering case against him and others based on an FIR registered last year by the CBI.
